Fear...[80]

There are two types of fear in the Bible:
  1. Helpful fear - respect and reverence
  2. Harmful fear - a devastating type of fear which does not come from God. It comes through three other sources: Self generated through our mind or from the world and its fearful environment and circumstances or from the devil and demonic areas.
God did not design your body or mind to take this harmful fear or undue stress. He did not say we would not experience it, but showed us the way of release from it. God desires to replace this harmful fear with His love, power and disciplined mind. Each day we must appropriate these fear-replacing qualities.

~ To every decision in life, we respond in fear or faith ~
